I wonder how they book Starks vs Danielson. There's a lot of variables at play:

-Gotta keep Dragon's arm as safe as possible, dude is coming back a month earlier than expected. It's a gimmick match so I guess they'll work around it using the strap.

-Does Ricky stay a heel or does he start to turn back babyface? With no Punk, no more "soft brand split" and not even a big babyface on Collision it doesn't feel like he needs to stay heel, and the crowd clearly wants to cheer for him.

-Makes little sense for Dragon to win but yet again beating him after he's coming off a huge W over Okada still feels weird as fukk. At the same time, fukking over Starks feels wrong too. I guess if Ricky stays a heel they can book a fukkery finish so he gets the W and Danielson is somewhat protected :ld:

Danielson is a made man, he doesn't need to be protected.

Dragon wins then Ricky costs him his match in the title tournament. Blow-off match at the next PPV where Ricky goes over in hopefully to redo the MJF feud that he probabaly could have won last year.

I think they should keep Ricky as a heel. He's so much better as a heel. They can plug Hangman, Samoa Joe or Danielson as the top babyface without really any trouble.

I really think Danielson is much better used as an asset by being a heel to be honest.

And I hope they've learned with MJF that if the crowd wants to cheer for a guy, the best call is to let them and don't change much of the character, just make him face heels and play a little to the crowd.
